Welcome to my Anonymom series. Real moms talking about their deepest and darkest moments – anonymously. Anonymom episodes may consist of difficult topics including miscarriage, infertility, separation, anxiety, depression, trauma, and other potentially triggering issues. Names have been changed to protect the identity of the mom.
This episode features Jennifer, a working mom with a one year old. She talks about her previous miscarriage and what the subsequent experience of pregnancy was like. She goes in depth about the mom guilt she feels for not being able to breastfeed and for working while her son is at daycare. She shares how important it is to be vulnerable and open up to other moms because the potential for solidarity is invaluable.
